The below temperature resistances are simplified and refer to the steam temperature when reaching the ironing machine. Usually the steam cools before hitting the clothing (and the ironing cover) and there are intervals between the hot periods when you use the iron or the press is closed and steam streams through the covering. Please avoid to close presses longer than necessary for the pressing cycle (e.g. at working breaks) in order to preserve the ironing covers.
In case you require data about the heat resistance of fibres at permanent direct contact to hot metal surfaces please download a list with physical properties of fibres.

V-Max Aramid is heat resistant up to 250°C (480°F).
Due to the limited availability of orginal DuPont Nomex® Aramid fibres we can only ensure the continous production of articles which are containing Aramid fibres by using also Aramid fibres from different manufacturers. We are sure that you will not find a change of quality at the V-Max Aramid products.

VOMATEX developed the VOMAT bristle covers especially for ironing velvet and similar fabrics.
The close standing bristles prevent from shine and give a rough finish.
Simply put the fluffy side of the fabric on the bristle side of the cover and iron the left side (inside) of the clothing. The right side will remain fluffy while the left side can be ironed smooth and even.
VOMAT bristle covers are supplied in running meters at 160 cm width and therefore can be cutted easily and at low cost for any kind of machine.
Length of rolls: +/- 10 meters
